Padi6 - peptidyl arginine deiminase 6

Predicted to enable protein-arginine deiminase activity. Predicted to be involved in embryonic cleavage and histone citrullination. Predicted to act upstream of or within cellular protein metabolic process; cytoplasm organization; and cytoskeleton organization. Predicted to be located in cortical granule and intermediate filament cytoskeleton. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in infertility. Orthologous to human PADI6 (peptidyl arginine deiminase 6). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
